VIVA LA RESISTANCE
[Intimology]
October 1, 2024
Erotic-aesthetic practice in which one partner deprives the other of a certain degree of physical mobility and/or freedom of action in order to obtain psychosexual and/or aesthetic pleasure. Usually considered a part of BDSM. Bondage is most often understood as tying up, but it also includes other forms of restriction or deprivation of freedom of action: shackling, use of stocks, handcuffs, and similar items, confinement in a cage, etc. It can be a form of sadomasochism, but most often it has no direct relation to the infliction of physical pain, focusing primarily on the moral and emotional aspects of the practice.
